TIP

When a custom white balance setting is successfully captured, "Custom"

will automatically become the selected item in the White Balance menu.

It is recommended that an automatic exposure mode such as P, A, or S

be used when capturing a custom white balance setting to ensure proper
exposure.

It may be necessary to set the lens to manual focus (P.50) when capturing a

custom white balance setting since auto focus may not work properly when
photographing low contrast subjects.
